There are a hundred good reasons to love these strong and goofy dogs. But, historically speaking, these English Bulldogs were bred to fight bulls. Long ago, bulldogs were used in a blood sport in England called bull-baiting. They were specially bred for that purpose. With time, however, the gruesome sport was completely banned. But, that caused more trouble as people didn’t see any use for them anymore and they nearly faced extinction. However, people who grew fond of bulldogs continued to breed them, and today we have them almost everywhere in the world.
The bulldogs today make great pets as they are very different than how they used to be before. They are very friendly and playful doggos just like the others. They easily adapt to apartment living which makes them a great choice for first-time dog owners. People all over the world love them. Especially, in Britain.
Also, let’s not forget they are really funny too! Their silly facial expressions easily make people laugh, and they’re just overall very fun to be around. We have compiled some bulldog posts for you below that show just how entertaining and fun life is when they are around. Scroll down and enjoy!
Bulldogs are easily distinguished by their big head, wrinkly skin, and muscular body. Though these bulldogs were initially bred for a cruel purpose, they are today one of the friendliest dog breeds ever. They are especially good with children and are very protective of their owners. However, they get a bit too excited when it’s time to eat, so it’s best to not have kids around them when they’re having lunch/dinner. Overall, they have a very good temperament. They are highly energetic and also muscular which makes them a great choice for guard dogs. They are also very low-maintenance dogs as they don’t shed that much and only require brushing once a week.
